WRIT2 . Krut R M 4 Years Ago

Probably my favorite class so far. He always seemed so passionate about what he was teaching and is dedicated to helping his students. He always told us to stay after or email him if we needed anything.

Prof Krut, hands down the best professor my freshmen year so far! Although we were in remote learning, he made it clear that he cared for his students and was there if anyone needed him. I believe thats what made me respect him a lot, because he understood the situation we are all in. 3 easy essays!

Robert Krut has been the best professor I have had in my time here at UCSB! He is so great to his students and is genuinely concerned about each and every one of them. He is so helpful and clearly wants everyone to succeed. Take him. Take him. Take him!

Great guy. Goes a little too easy on students at times, but only because he wants everyone to feel comfortable in class. For the most part he knows what he's talking about.

Great teacher!! Very helpful and made class fun and interesting to go to. Only 3 papers, which he guided us through step by step. Highly recommend him! I would like to take more classes of his.
